    It took me all but spelling out one of the qual questions on here to get a decent explanation for it from the requester. I haven't take the test again because I just don't want the batch if that is what it takes. Rowan would have answered in one simple post and had a cute piggy to look at.

    Right on. That means, I'm just being an idiot on these and not translating them to a way that makes sense.

    If I were the requester, I'd first thoroughly instruct the worker prior to taking the test. Why not provide numerous examples which cover every possible circumstance (and also explain why the sentence is either acceptable or unacceptable)?

    The test itself had only two examples (but no pictures to go along with the sentences).

    FWIW, the original test had to be changed because it was too confusing.

    Someone on here was helping that requester make their hits less horrible. I don't remember who it was, but hopefully they can help explain this from a worker perspective.

    How many versions now? I've taken two different ones and they were not all that different. Just some small text fixes and it looked like one question was just turned to mean the opposite of its original version.

    the original test was impossible based on the changes they made when they had to fix it lmfao

    i think this is the 4th version, but yeah, you're far from an idiot about it. i looked at the first one, returned it and never looked back. judging by how people feel about this qual, it's not really something i want.

    From the examples:
    [It's not such a good sentence due to ambiguity, so just go with your instinct.]
    It says a lot that one of your two examples is useless.

    If you're this worked up about the qual, you probably don't want to do the hits anyway.
